It was their last chance to make a final impression and win some points in their favor before the crucial decisions were made and declared in the coronation event at the Samsung Theater. The gladiators: the candidates to the Misters of Filipinas Year 10. Their battleground: the plush House Manila party place in Newport World Resorts. The prize: a spot in the competition’s first cut that will whittle down their number from 34 to just 20.
What was initially expected as an ordinary fashion show turned out to be a bloodbath of competition, with the contenders parading only twice: one, in a segment called “fashions of the world” and second, in white formals. The candidates showed their respective best performances, and it was clear how some of them had been holding back from bringing out their A games in the pageant’s most crucial moments. The preliminary night was one of them.

“I was only thinking to be myself, to show everyone what a true Misamisnon and a Mindanaoan is. I told myself my clothes would not leave a mark on their minds. It will be my true self and personality that will last forever,” Samon confidently stated.
“My performance was a product of hard work and passion. In my five years of experience in this industry, I can say that I am now a certified pageant joiner. MOF is my first national pageant, and I am lucky to say that all of my experiences before helped me perform well. Every time I compete, I always remind myself that this will be my last pageant so that after, I will not regret having given my best,” Manalang said.
